I remember people warning this would happen years ago on various online threads, and getting ridiculed for it.

Yeah, print out that fuckin' telephone because we called it. Sometimes it sucks to be right.

I'm happy I built a Voron Trident a few years ago instead of going for the Bambu Lab printer. It's more work of course, but I also know what parts are in it and how to fix it or upgrade it.

The only thing that one has to give Bambulab credit for is making 3D printing accessible to people who don't want to or don't have the skills to tinker with their printer.

Yeah it'd just be nice if they weren't trying so hard to emulate all the bad parts of paper printer companies!

Yeah, I absolutely agree!
